Funcom marked Dune: Awakening‘s first year by looking back at the updates that have shaped the game and by pointing players toward what comes next. The Steam notice framed the message as both a recap of the last 12 months and a preview of a later 2026 milestone.
That next milestone is the console release, which Funcom said will arrive on September 22. The studio also pointed readers to its official blog post on the console date and single-player plans for more details.
Funcom kept the Steam message short, but the timing says plenty. The game has reached a one-year mark on PC, and the studio is now steering attention toward the console launch and the next round of content.

Dune: Awakening
Developed by Funcom
Dune: Awakening is an open-world survival MMO set on the desert planet Arrakis. Players create a custom character and must manage thirst, maintain stillsuits, and contend with environmental hazards like sandstorms, extreme heat, and roaming sandworms. The game involves scavenging resources, crafting equipment, building shelters, and competing with other players to harvest and transport spice. As players progress, they advance through phases from basic survival to leading a guild, eventually participating in faction warfare between House Atreides and House Harkonnen. The game features both PvE and PvP zones, with a Deep Desert area that reshapes weekly through Coriolis storms.
